Detection of conductive media through a wall.
 
 

 
Capacitive "see-through" sensors.
  • Easy adjustment in the application by pressing a pushbutton.
  • Automatic detection of PNP or NPN output loads.
  • Normally open / normally closed freely selectable.
  • Clearly visible indication of the switching
  • Increased noise immunity.

Application
The sensors of the type KG506x have been optimised for the detection of conductive media through non-metal walls or on bypasses. They are used to detect the minimum level, leakage or overflow of tanks.

Set-up
The new operating concept enables setting and adjustment of the output function by pressing just one pushbutton. The automatic load detection simplifies configuration and set -up with different evaluation systems.

Applications
Optimised for the detection of conductive media with a dielectric constant > 20
